Annabelle, please don't take it personally. It is not uncommon, in general discussion forums, to make general statements when describing trends in society. It is understood there are people who don't exactly fit within the statements being made, but if a poster were to list each and every exception in his discussion, the thread would become unwieldy. You can't deny that women are sexualized in our society. This is what is being discussed in this thread, not the fact that you don't personally sexualize women.
